Anna Begins |
| My friend assures me it’s all or nothing |
| I am not worried- I am not overly concerned |
| My friend implores me for one time only, |
| Make an exception. |
| I am not not worried |
| Wrap her up in a package of lies |
| Send her off to a coconut island |
| I am not worried — I am not overly concerned |
| With the status of my emotions |
| Oh, she says, were changing. |
| But were always changing |
| It does not bother me to say this isn’t love |
| Because if you don’t want to talk about it then it isn’t love |
| And I guess I’m going to have to live that |
| But, I’m sure there’s something in a shade of gray |
| Or something in between |
| And I can always change my name if that’s what you mean |
| My friend assures me it’s all or nothing' |
| But I am not really worried |
| I am not overly concerned |
| You try to tell your self the things you try tell your self to make |
| Yourself forget |
| To make your self forget |
| I am not worried |
| If it’s love she said, then were gonna have to think about the |
| Consequences |
| She can’t stop shaking and I can t stop touching her and… |
| This time when kindness falls like rain |
| It washes her away and anna begins to change her mind |
| These seconds when I’m shaking leave me shuddering |
| For days she says. |
| And I’m not ready for this sort of thing |
| But I’m not gonna break |
| And I’m not going to worry about it anymore |
| I’m not gonna bend. |
| and I’m not gonna break and |
| I’m not gonna worry about it anymore |
| It seems like I should say as long as this is love… |
| But it’s not all that easy so maybe I should just |
| Snap her up in a butterfly net- |
| Pin her down on a photograph album |
| I am not worried |
| I’ve done this sort of thing before |
| But then I start to think about the consequences |
| Because I don’t get no sleep in a quiet room and… |
| The time when kindness falls like rain |
| It washes me away and anna begins change my mind |
| And every time she sneezes I believe it’s love |
| And oh lord… I’m not ready for this sort of thing |
| She s talking in her sleep-it s keeping me awake |
| And anna begins to toss and turn |
| And every word is nonsense but I understand it and |
| Oh lord. |
| I’m not ready for this sort of thing |
| Her kindness bangs a gong |
| It’s moving me along and anna begins to fade away |
| It s chasing me away. |
| she dissappears, and oh lord I’m not ready for this sort |
| of thing |
